迷你对话学地道口语第1期:败家子  

节目简介：,大多数英语学习者往往只将书面上的语言用于口语上，这无疑导致口语表达生硬。而充满着生命力的习语的使用会使得您的口语用词鲜活，幽默，拉近您与对话者的距离。当然俚语要谨慎使用，用得不好会产生误会和矛盾。那么，在我们的这个小节目中将选用出现于职场、生活中高频的成语、谚语、习语和俚语，将之融入简短的对话中，深化您对该习语的理解和运用情景。,a black sheep,讲解：旧时牧羊人不喜欢黑色的，因为迷信认为黑色是魔鬼的化身，会给人带来厄运或灾祸。另外，黑羊毛不如白羊毛值钱，这也是一个原因。牧羊人会因羊羣中有黑羊而诅咒不已。因此，a black sheep就引申为“败类”“败家子”的意思，与汉语中的“害羣之马”相近。例如：Joe is the Black sheep of his family. He splashed nearly a few years.乔是个败家子。几年内他竟然挥霍掉十几万美元。,情景对话：,A :I don't know how John canput up withhis son, whofools aroundwithout working.,B :He'sout of John's hands.
